“Relationships 101”- Interpersonal relationships workshop, organized by the Student Affairs Office – Psychological Counseling Team, was successfully held on November 5th (Friday) in room R407. The workshop, facilitated by our school psychological counselor using group counseling approaches, provided a platform for students to experience the process of building healthy relationships.
Every year, the workshop attracted students from different majors and years of study to participate. This is the fourth interpersonal relationships workshop hosted by the psychological counseling team aiming to improve general students’ mental wellness. Through the workshop, students learned to build genuine relationships and to interact with others openly. The workshop covered concepts such as definition of friends, ideal communication models, active listening, empathy, self-affirmation and praise. Over an hour and a half, the facilitator, together with all the participants, went through an interpersonal journey filled with ideas of relationships building, communication skills, and experiential learning.
All participants engaged actively in group discussion and created an open atmosphere for deep sharing. Students made friends with each other and this process boosted up their confidence in building real-life relationships. All of them took an important step to establish mutual trust and rapport with each other. Participants concurred that they look forward to similar workshops or activities in the future, and would definitely recommend friends and classmates to join.
The Psychological Counseling Team organize series of seminars, workshops, and activities to promote student’s mental wellness every year.
